Validate staff qualifications before placing anyone near patients.
One forged credential in a care setting is one too many.
Fraudulent nursing registrations, fake first aid certificates, and forged police clearances have led to real harm in healthcare and social care settings. The volume of documents processed during staff onboarding - especially for agency and temporary workers - creates the conditions for fraudulent credentials to slip through. A forensic check on every document submitted is the only systematic protection.

The problem
What fraud looks like in healthcare & social care
How it typically shows up, and the forensic signal that exposes each one.
Forged nursing and allied health certificates
Registration certificates from non-existent or misrepresented institutions are submitted to bypass mandatory qualification checks. Embossed seal analysis, font consistency, and registration number format checks expose the forgeries.
Fake first aid and mandatory training completions
Certificates for required training - first aid, manual handling, infection control - are fabricated or altered to show completion. Issuing body branding, date plausibility, and stamp authenticity are all verified.
Altered police clearance letters
Police clearance certificates and working-with-children checks are edited to remove disclosures or alter dates. Government letterhead plausibility, stamp forensics, and field alignment analysis detect the tampering.

FAQ
Common questions about healthcare & social care
How do you detect a forged nursing or allied health registration?
TamperCheck checks embossed seal and hologram authenticity, registration number format, and font consistency against the structural signatures genuine registration bodies leave in their documents. Forged or misrepresented registrations typically break one of these checks even when the branding looks convincing.
Can it verify police clearance and working-with-children checks?
Yes. These documents are checked for government letterhead plausibility, stamp forensics (distinguishing a genuine physical stamp from a digitally placed overlay), and field alignment - catching edits to dates or disclosure sections on otherwise genuine clearance letters.
Is this suitable for high-volume agency and temporary staff onboarding?
Yes - it's built for exactly that case. Agency and locum staffing involves processing qualification documents at volume and speed, which is where manual review is weakest. A single API call per document keeps the same rigour at any volume without adding review time to onboarding.
What's the data handling posture for healthcare credentials?
No documents are stored after verification - TamperCheck returns a verdict and specific findings, then discards the file. This keeps the workflow HIPAA and GDPR-compatible for organisations handling sensitive staff and patient-adjacent records.
